  • Description

    This comprehensive collection reevaluates traditional areas of interest in German cinema (such as Weimar cinema, Nazi pro-paganda, New German Cinema) and complements this with a fresh look at hitherto neglected aspects, including early cinema, the cinema of the GDR, popular genre traditions, questions of national cinema and identity, and German film’s transnational connections to Hollywood, as well as to exile and migrant cinemas.
